No Strings Attached

My mother, the master puppeteer.

Watching Over You

Dora, patron saint of blogs.

Dora Montana

Dora's practicing for her Vanity Fair portrait with Annie Liebovitz.

This may be a suggestive picture for a young kitten -- laying seductively on white sheets and all -- but she's ready to push the envelope and have the world accept her budding cat-hood.

Bills Bills Bills

Diego's guide to paying your bills:

First, spread them out all over the floor so you can keep your eyes on them, and pounce on them repeatedly -- just to make sure they're not going anywhere.

Hey, get back over here! See? This one's already trying to get away.


Grab them firmly with your jaw, and proceed to thrash them around. Keep this up for a few minutes, for good measure. And that's it.

You didn't think I was actually going to pay them, did you? Don't be ridiculous.

Downward Facing Cat

Somebody please take this kitty to her yoga class already -- she's been waiting by the door for hours.

Cat-Fessions

I have a confession to make Grandma. But I'm embarassed.


So I'm just going to whisper it to the back of your head, OK?

The Illusionist

It might just be me, but whenever I look at this picture, Dora's head seems to still be moving rapidly from side to side.

Dora's Senior Moment

Let me set up this clip, as they say. Dora somehow forgot that she left her mouse over on Diego's left. So naturally, she starts looking around for it ...

Shoppers beware, a new danger lurks at the malls this season ...

(music from Jaws playing in the background)

Need I say more?

The Finer Things

I rest my head only near the finest satin scarves.

Cat is Full of Love

Dora has so much love to give. There's enough licks to go around for both her brother and the computer.



PS: love the rough cat-tongue sounds on the laptop.

Travelin' Cat

Please take me with you. I won't make a peep, and I can keep your clothes nice and warm.

I wasn't kidding when I told you I could fit in your luggage.

Blow Out

Dora's an educated consumer. She knows that a good hairbrush is one that does not attack you back.

Where in the world is Diego? Part 2

Yep, we can still see you ...

You're gonna have to work a little harder on your hiding places.

Though I must admit, I did have to look around for a good 20 seconds before I found him here.
